nikt.zog.net.au - the host of these forums, is currently getting a full rsync backup.. this is linux's native backup application, and behaves in much the same way as wget or scp.. it's secure, very thorough and has all it's default options just right..
This may reduce forums performance over the next few hours.. but will mean we have everything safely backed up on my linux server here, which has a nice new 100Gb drive to keep these backups safe.
*edit* annnnd done.
